is wheat. OF which about 30. 600, 900 bush

raised in a good year four-fifths of which
are exported This wheat is almost
wholly raised on large ranches by con

farmer than he is miner or a miller. He
lets out his plowing and seeding by the
acre and bOrrows money from the bank:
to pay the bill, giving security on the
growing crop.

was granted hearing; but such a hearing,
A beggarly fifteen minutes was allowed
her. and she was compelled "a speak amid
the fumes of tobacco smoke. and surround
ed by drunken revelers, who openly jeered
her sentiments" The text of this utter
ance was wired to Hon. VIM. Mckinley,
Jun, who was a member of the committee
on resolutions at the Chicago convention.
and he was asked as 10 the facts in the
case: lie replied As follows:
Miss Willard was given most attentive
and respectful hearing by the committee on
resolutions Of the republican national con-
yentiOn of 1884. The time she occupied
do not now recall, but remember the ad-
dress as an able argument which COM
manded the closest attention Of the COM

fumes of tobacco smoke and surrounded by
drunken reyelers who openly sneered al

The Bob Moore is the name of a new
3air of bobs just built for an Albany N.
" eoasting club at a cost of S22j. The
bob is twenty-five feet long and has q
novel steering apparatus. The man in
charge OF the wheel at the rear in case he
wants to stop the bob can raise the long
seat by one turn of the wheel, and at the
same time throw the rear runners toward
the ground or on their toes, at the SAINT
time causing large iron claw TO scrape the
ground. The steersman can also pull a
cord by his side and a spring drops heavy
chain directly underneath the runners OF
the rear bob, checking the speed of the bobs
almost instantly in case of an accident.
The seats for the steersman and brakeman
each have plush cushions and nickel plated
backs. A 22-inch nickel plated gong bell
/. conspicuous at the extreme front Of the
bob.-Detroit Free Press

II is mournful thing to see men perish
and yet sometimes there is certain grim
pleasure in 1t. One cannot bear to see
Gods everlasting laws of equity set at de
fiance and no punishment follow. And
when transgressors are picked off in the
presence of the world, and they are shaken
and their bones rattle before men. there is
a sort of awful pleasure in it. And yet Of
all the things that perish on the earth, not
the perishing Of temples, nor the destruc-
ton of pictures, not the fracture of costly
marbles, not the ruin by earthquakes Of
cities or of villages, is half SO sad and so
melancholy as the destruction of the young
that are going down in our midst from
day TO day.-Henry Ward Beecher in New

The BliEzArdE in Dakota.

''The billiards out in Dakota are SO ter

that the people string clothes lines from
their homes to their outhOuses in order
that they may pass to and fro during the
prevalence of one of these storms without
running the risk of losing their way in

Hail Storms Versus English Sparrows.

IF we had two or three terrific hail
storms each year" said man from Wis
consin, ''the English sparrow nuisance
would soon be abated. There are fewer
sparrows in Wisconsin to-day than at any
time within the past ten years. This is
all due TO the fierce hail-stOrm which
swept over the state about five months
ago. The icy missiles fell for less than
five minutes, yet in that short space Of
time thousands of sparrows We're pelted
to death. Since then the southern part Of
the state has been comparatively free from
these little pugnacious birds. '-Phila-

ideal of an official, chsry of speech, digni
fled. prompt, active, immovably gracious,
distant and obliging, and thereby SO i'm
pressive that the whole town, whose SER
want she is. receives its books from her,
asks her for information and pays her its
fines with submissive and affectionate
gratitude The other has no official man
ner; she is just herself personally; and
you, If you ask her for book, are asking
a favor of her. She cannot establish her
authority over the patrons of the library,
because. lawful as that authority really
is, she takes it. by her manner, COM
pletely off its proper basis, and makes it
a mere attempt on the part of one free
citizen TO command another, which human
nature will not stand.

sional manner is worth half his practice
